Fresh laundry makes you feel better in your own skin and in your own home. The right washing programme guarantees deep-cleaned, cared-for textiles. Washing machines with the Home Connect function take on responsibility for selecting the ideal programme and save on water and electricity.

How a smart washing machine with Home Connect works

Sensors in your smart washing machine detect the textile type and degree of dirtiness and set the washing programme accordingly.

With a Home Connect washing machine from Bosch or another home appliance brand, as well as getting a grip on cleanliness, you'll be able to wash your laundry flexibly whenever you want. Do you need your washing to be ready at a specific time? No problem! Simply start your intelligent washing machine using the Home Connect app at the time that suits you best.

You can also trigger special stain programmes with your smartphone or tablet. Additional control tips in the app ensure an environmentally friendly washing cycle with a consistently fresh result.

What are you waiting for? Take a look at the possibilities that a Home Connect washing machine has to offer.

Tips for added efficiency and cleanliness

Save on water and energy: If you have an EEBUS-based energy management system, your smart washing machine will start up automatically when electricity is at its cheapest or when your solar system starts to generate electricity.

With an i-DOS washing machine, you contribute further to protecting resources: It determines how much detergent and fabric softener is required to get a perfectly clean result.

In addition, the Home Connect app tells you when your washing powder's running low.

Smart: Your energy management

With smart energy management, you use your own electricity for your household – automatically and at precisely those times when your solar system is producing energy.

With your permission, the customer service representative can access your washing machine online and start remote diagnostics.
